DENEB BOTH

Alternate Names: Momaw Nadon, Hammerhead (ILM/Kenner), Meerian Hammerhead (SW Radio Drama), Deneb Both (CCG)

Actor: unknown

Description:
The Ithorian called Ammerha sits at the far back end of Ackmena’s cantina counter all by himself, but that’s his special spot. Ackmena pays special attention to this gentle creature, often patting him on the head affectionately.

Details: The Ithorian seen in A New Hope was eventually called Momaw Nadon. In 1978 a Lucasfilm memo named this creature Ammerha, but the name did not get used, so we will give that name to this particular Ithorian from The Star Wars Holiday Special.
